2013-14 Network TV Show Ratings [week 36 update]

Published: June 4, 2014

Which series are doing the best? The worst? Wondering how your favorite TV shows are doing in the ratings? Here are the season average ratings of the 2013-14 network TV shows — through the end of week 36 (Sunday, June 1, 2014).

The averages are based on the final national numbers (live plus same day viewing). The demos are typically reported with one decimal place but I’ve included two for more accurate ranking.

Note:If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also view them here and here.

ABC shows (so far):20/20, America’s Funniest Home Videos, The Assets, The Bachelor, Back in the Game, Betrayal, Black Box, Castle, Celebrity Wife Swap, Dancing with the Stars, The Goldbergs, The Great Christmas Light Fight, Grey’s Anatomy, Killer Women, Last Man Standing, Lucky 7, Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, The Middle, Mixology, Modern Family, Nashville, The Neighbors, Once Upon a Time, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland, Primetime: What Would You Do?, Resurrection, Revenge, Scandal, Shark Tank, Super Fun Night, The Taste, and Trophy Wife.

Keep in mind that the demo numbers are typically what’s most important to advertisers. Therefore, that’s how the networks measure success. Advertisers pay more for ad time on a show that has a higher demo rating. Because older viewers don’t count? No, it’s because younger viewers watch less traditional TV and are harder to reach.

What do you think? Are you surprised by any of the ratings? Which shows should be doing better?

I want them to cancel that stupid, evil, Satanic, Salem. They shouldn’t be allowed to put things like that on TV. It’s demonic and absolute ****. I don’t want that on my TV and i’m sure many parents don’t want their kids exposed to that either. Stop cancelling good shows and start cancelling the ones that deserve to be cancelled!

Well said Mr. Heinrich! I recorded it and had 3 (Salem) of them to go through. Yikes, I was shocked at how filthy and disgusting it was and didn’t even get through the first one before I zapped them. When I taped them I thought I was getting something historic instead I got free porno! Makes me sick to think they put this on TV.. AND got advertisers!!!! The network and the advertisers should be ashamed of themselves.
